Welles played Holmes only once, in this 1938 adaptation of the William Gillette play. Eustace Wyatt is Moriarty. Listen out for future Watson Alfred Shirley.

  Yes, James that is the same one. Here's a clearer copy.

Thank you. I never Wells even played Holmes at any time. I'll have to give this a listen.
